I will be bringing 5 kegs, 4 of my beers and Lyn's beer. Lyn's concoction from the group brew day is a Pale Ale.

My four beers are Extra Pale Ale, Light Lager, Summit Amber Ale (group brew), and an American IPA.

Where's all the reports? Work schedule got in my way so I have to read about what was missed.

I've not posted my photo's up yet, but here's a link to some of Brad's photos:

It was a great time at the new venue but it was a long hike from our closest campsites to the fest and the shuttle service SUCKED.

Otherwise we still had the best lineup of beers there. I suffered through a couple dozen of the other club's beers and had to leave and find dump buckets for them as well as rinse water, ugggghhhhh, they were awful.

The fest site was great, although the camp sites were far from the actual festival and the shuttle service were very spotty.

I had a couple outstanding beers from other clubs, and many crappy beers.

I'm assuming I've got the report you're looking for...

Everyone loved The Bruery's beer!

If anyone stayed in one of the camp sites reserved by Lyn and you haven't paid him yet, please do so. Lyn goes to much trouble every year to reserve enough spots for the club, so pay up or you may not have a place to sleep next year!!

I'll echo that. We're very fortunate to have Lyn so enmeshed in the process of the SCHF every year representing Brewcommune and brewers in general. He works very hard and tries to plan as well as he is able within the confines of the comittee.

EVERY STINKING YEAR it seems like someone stiffs him for campsite fees. This is just dead freaking wrong folks.

Thanks Brad and Pete!

While I did plan and pay for the 3 sites 6 months in advance, I only have Joe (ptb) and his friend who camped on site B17 Friday night only to pay me yet. Brent, Kevin & Tyler all paid me on Sunday. I comp'd Brad and Dustin's camp fee's since they graciously hauled most of the serving stuff up and back for me. Thanks so much!

I must be missing something. It sounds like Joe and friend payed for a camp site. Brent, Kevin, and Tyler too. You comped for a Brad and Dustin for a third. That sound a lot like 3 sites. What am I missing?

Joe and his friend left Saturday afternoon while everyone was still at the fest, so my guess is Lyn meant they are the only ones that didn't pay yet.
